The following Today show video is about a little kid (toddler) named Titus, who is only 2 years old. A viral video of Titus doing some regular and trick basketball shots has skyrocketed in popularity, with over 2 million viewers since just this past Sunday. This video is from the February 7, 2013 episode of the Today show.

Titus is actually in the studio to hit some basketball shots for this episode. He has some siblings with him – Isabelle, Ansel, and Lincoln. Naturally, his parents are there, as well. They are Kristen and Joseph Ashby (not sure about the spelling on some of these names).

Dad said he started shooting baskets shortly after he started walking. That was at about 15 months of age.

The kid misses a lot in real life instead of hitting every shot like you see in the viral video. But he clearly loves basketball and seems to genuinely have a passion for the game.
